What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS La Crosse, WI wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jul 24, 3:45 PM CDT, 39 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jul 24, 3:45 PM CDT, 39 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LA CROSSE WI
345 PM CDT FRI JUL 24 2009

.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT

THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING...AND
PRECIPITATION AND TEMPERATURES FROM SATURDAY THROUGH MONDAY ARE
THE MAIN CONCERNS WITH THIS PART OF THE FORECAST.

AT 3 PM...A COLD FRONT WAS LOCATED FROM ASHLAND WISCONSIN
SOUTHEAST TO FORT DODGE IOWA. ELEVATED SHOWERS AND STRONG
THUNDERSTORMS WERE LOCATED BETWEEN DODGE CENTER MINNESOTA
TO BOSCOBEL AND RICHLAND CENTER WISCONSIN. THIS PRECIPITATION WAS
GENERATING IN AN AREA OF MODERATE TO STRONG 900 TO 700 MB
FRONTOGENESIS. 40 TO 50 KNOT 700 MB WINDS ARE BRINGING
ELEVATED INSTABILITY INTO THIS AREA FROM WESTERN IOWA.
SPC MOST UNSTABLE CAPES ARE RUNNING AROUND 3000 J/KG JUST
WEST OF OUR FORECAST AREA. MEANWHILE AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT...
SURFACE BASE CAPES ARE RUNNING BETWEEN 500 AND 1000 J/KG. IN
ADDITION TO THIS INSTABILITY...THE EFFECTIVE BULK SHEAR ARE RUNNING
ANYWHERE FROM 45 TO 55 KNOTS. AS A RESULT...WE EXPECT THAT THE
THREAT FOR SEVERE WEATHER WILL LIKELY CONTINUE UNTIL AT AT LEAST
10 PM THIS EVENING. DESPITE CINS APPROACHING 200 J/KG CAUSED BY
THE EARLIER CONVECTION...THERE IS STILL THE THREAT OF DAMAGING
WINDS DUE TO DOWNDRAFT CAPES APPROACHING 1000 J/KG. IF THE
SUNSHINE CAN MIX OUT THE STABLE LAYER NEAR THE SURFACE...THE
0-1 KM STORM RELATIVE HELICITY WOULD BE FAVORABLE FOR THE
DEVELOPMENT OF A TORNADO. AT THIS TIME...THE BEST THREAT OF SEVERE
WEATHER LOOKS TO BE ACROSS SOUTHEAST MINNESOTA...NORTHEAST
IOWA...AND SOUTHWEST WISCONSIN.

A CLOSED 500 MB LOW WILL MOVE SOUTHEAST INTO THE GREAT LAKES FOR
MUCH OF THE UPCOMING WEEKEND. THE COMBINATION OF COLD AIR ALOFT
AND DIURNAL HEATING WILL RESULT IN MEAN LAYER CAPES CLIMBING INTO
THE 500 TO 1000 J/KG RANGE. AS A RESULT...THERE WILL BE A CHANCE
OF INSTABILITY SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS FROM LATE MORNING THROUGH
EARLY EVENING ACROSS THE ENTIRE AREA ON SATURDAY AND MAINLY ACROSS
WESTERN WISCONSIN ON SUNDAY. WITH THE GFS 850 MB TEMPERATURE
ANOMALIES RUNNING AROUND 1 BELOW THE 1948 TO 2007 STANDARDIZED
ANOMALIES...HIGH TEMPERATURES ON SATURDAY WILL LIKELY RANGE FROM
THE UPPER 60S TO MID 70S.

ADDITIONAL CHANCES OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS LOOK POSSIBLE ON
MONDAY AS A COLD FRONT APPROACHES THE REGION. SOUTHWESTERLY WINDS
AHEAD OF THIS FRONT WILL ALLOW TEMPERATURES TO CLIMB TO AROUND 80
IN MOST AREAS.

.LONG TERM...TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY

THE OUTGOING LONG WAVE RADIATION CONTINUES TO SHOW STRONG
TROPICAL FORCING LOCATED OVER THE WESTERN PACIFIC BETWEEN 140 AND
170 DEGREES EAST LONGITUDE. WITH THE SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURES IN
THIS AREA REMAINING AT OR ABOVE 29C...THIS CONVECTION WILL LIKELY
CONTINUE THROUGH THIS TIME PERIOD. THE WAVE TRAIN ASSOCIATED WITH
THIS CONVECTION HAS RESULTED IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF A STRONG 150 MB
ANTICYCLONE CENTERED AT 150 DEGREES EAST LONGITUDE AND 50 DEGREES
NORTH LATITUDE. AS THIS SYSTEM PROGRESSES EAST...THE TELECONNECTION
ASSOCIATED WITH THIS FEATURE WILL LIKELY RESULT IN FURTHER
AMPLIFICATION OF THE 500 MB RIDGE ACROSS THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST AND
WESTERN CANADA. AS THIS OCCURS...THE 500 MB TROUGH AXIS SHOULD
GRADUALLY SHIFT FROM THE GREAT LAKES AND ONTARIO WEST INTO THE
NORTHERN PLAINS AND MANITOBA...AND IN TURN OUR WINDS ALOFT WILL
SHIFT FROM THE NORTHWEST TO THE WEST.

SINCE THE 24.00Z MODELS SEEM TO HAVE A GOOD HANDLE ON THIS
SITUATION...THERE WAS ENOUGH CONFIDENCE TO APPLY SOME MORE TIMING
TO THIS PART OF THE FORECAST. WITH CANADIAN COLD FRONTS MOVING
SOUTHEAST THROUGH THE AREA FROM MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY...AND
FROM THURSDAY NIGHT INTO FRIDAY...SLIGHTLY HIGHER PRECIPITATION
CHANCES WERE CENTERED ON THOSE TIME PERIODS. SINCE THE LAST
3 MODEL RUNS BEING DRY FROM TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY...THE
PRECIPITATION PROBABILITIES WERE DROPPED FOR THOSE TIME PERIODS.

WITH THE GFS AND ECMWF 850 MB TEMPERATURE ANOMALIES REMAINING
ANYWHERE FROM 0.5 TO 1.5 BELOW THE 1948 TO 2007 STANDARDIZED
ANOMALIES...THE TEMPERATURES SHOULD REMAIN BELOW NORMAL THROUGH
THE END OF JULY. SINCE THE MOS MAXIMUM TEMPERATURES HAVE BEEN
TRENDING TOO WARM LATELY...A 50-50 BLEND OF HPC AND MOS BIAS
CORRECTED WERE USED FOR THESE GRIDS.

&&

.AVIATION...TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY MORNING

SURFACE COLD FRONT REMAINS TO THE WEST OF BOTH TAF SITES THIS
AFTERNOON. STILL SOME UNCERTAINTY AS TO WHETHER ADDITIONAL
CONVECTION WILL FIRE ALONG THE FRONT. LAPS ANALYSIS AT 24.18Z SHOWS
A BUILDING NARROW AXIS OF CAPE JUST AHEAD OF THE FRONT. WATER VAPOR
SATELLITE IMAGERY STILL SHOWS A SHORT WAVE TROUGH UPSTREAM ACROSS
NORTHERN MINNESOTA. THE 24.18Z RUC SHOWS THE FRONTOGENESIS
CIRCULATION INCREASING WITH THE FRONT THROUGH THE LATE
AFTERNOON...ESPECIALLY OVER THE WESTERN SECTIONS OF THE FORECAST
AREA AND BELOW 700 MB. HAVE MAINTAINED THE CONTINUITY FROM THE
PREVIOUS TAFS OF SHOWING VICINITY SHOWERS THROUGH THE LATE AFTERNOON
INTO THE EARLY EVENING. VISIBLE AND IR SATELLITE SHOWING A LARGE
MASS OF LOW CLOUDS ASSOCIATED WITH THE SURFACE LOW. CEILINGS ARE
PRIMARILY VFR WITH SOME EMBEDDED MVFR. EXPECTING THESE CLOUDS TO
MOVE INTO BOTH TAF SITES SATURDAY MORNING AND FOR NOW HAVE BROUGHT
IN VFR CEILINGS.
